What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Rise of Legions will be in Early Access on Steam in order to get in touch with players as soon as possible. We plan to implement a lot more meta game features in the next stage of developing Rise of Legions. During this process we want to enable our community to actively take part in shaping the future of Rise of Legions.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We plan to go full Release as soon as the core features are polished and the meta game is finished. We currently think this will be summer 2019.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“For the full version we plan to have an additional Legion (Robots! exciting...i know :) everybody loves them) We also plan to further develop the PvE experience. Last but not least, new cards, skins and features will be added to the game on a regular basis.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“We are heavily focusing on bugfixing and polish. Everything is up and running but might be a bit rough around the edges at first. We apologize for that. All of the features listed in the "about" section are implemented.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“We don't plan to change the pricing.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Involving the community is of utmost importance to us. For now we are monitoring player feedback and improvement suggestions through our Steam forum as well as our facebook page and our Discord server.

We have a release-date \o/Rise of Legions Early Access launches on.. drumrooooll: 22 Feb 2019!

We’ve been putting our hearts into this game for three and a half years now, so we’re really excited this day has finally come. Since first Beta, we’ve been working super hard and improved quite a lot of things:

- New skins for your favourite units, like Snowman-Saplingbush, Machinerealm-Footmen, Underworld-Rootling and Rainbow Unicorn-Voidbaaaane O_O (and many more)- Smoother performance for everyone- New enchantment system (some units can enchant other units / increased synergies and combos)- Card leveling and ascension / Cards can now earn experience and evolve their stats- New Interface animations (popups, level-ups, rewards)- All starter decks are unlocked after the tutorial FOR FREE. Starter decks are then added to your decklist- Lots and lots of quality of life improvements (custom hotkeys, better tooltips, map navigation and more)- Short and sweet tutorial- Premium account that provides an xp- and currency-boost over a set timespan- Unlocking deck- and profile-icons through progression- 5 Tiers (stone, bronze, silver, gold and crystal) which enable you to play against players that have equally powered cards- New Quest system which includes Daily-, Tutorial- and Event-Quests- Increased the level cap of accounts to 60

A special thanks goes out to everyone who took part in the beta stages. You guys are awesome! <3

We’re really looking forward to getting the game out and letting everyone spawn their first Sapling! See you on release day! :D

November 1, 2018

As the spooky season comes to a close, we got some good news to cheer you up!

First and foremost, the next closed beta will start Friday, November 2nd at 8pm, CEST and will last until Monday, November 5th at 11:59 pm CEST.

The first version of the guided tutorial is finished, the ascension and leveling mechanics have been reworked and the PvP gameplay has been adjusted to make early stomps less likely. In addition to that, here’s a list of what we’ve been working on:

- New Interface animations (popups, level-ups, etc.)- Balancing adjustments (Units,Spells).- General gameplay adjustments (The towers are a bit stronger which leads to less early game stomps and makes siege units more valuable).- Navigation bar/game mode selection rework (better usability).- Unlock deck slots feature.- All starter decks are unlocked after the tutorial. Starter decks are then added as presets to your decklist..- Plus a lot of minor quality of life improvements (custom hotkeys, etc.)

In the spirit of focusing on what matters most from now to early access release, and because we are such a small team, we have decided to remove the 2v2 game mode for now. We will bring it back later. This allows us to concentrate all our efforts and time on bringing you the best 1v1 experience we can give you for the early access release.
